got a trailer with mini hubs on and 10 inch wheels,but iam revamping the trailer and as 10 inch tyres are hard to get hold of i thought i might fit some 13/14/15 inch wheels to give me a better choice of tyre.so does anyone know what wheels will fit? cheers

Ok, in 12" you can have post '85 Mini, Imp Viva HA & HB, A-series Metro. In 13" there's Viva HC, Victor up to FD, Austin A30, A35, A40, MG Midget. In 14" there's Morris Minor, Wolseley 1500 and Riley 1.5.
EDIT: been beaten to it!

You can get 10" trailer tyres - easier than 10" car tyres. Try Google for trailer parts suppliers but for a starter - www.towsure.com/product/500x10_4ply_tyreProper trailer tyres are more expensive than car items due to their load rating / potential load capacity. Paul h

thanks for all the replys. was hopeing that there might be a newer car with wheels that would fit,ford ,vauxhall etc so i could just get some from a scrapyard,but that looks unlikely with the above info.

^ Indeed. 4x4" isn't a particularly common pattern. IMO your best bet would be a set of Midget Rostyles - cheap and common enough, and in 13" so easy to find tyres for.

I'm considering putting mg midget wheels on my trailer that's fitted with mini hubs and 10" wheels. Question is though, will the mg wheels, which I guess are wider, rub against the trailer at the back? How is the offset affected?

What car wheel will fit mini hubs Any of the suggestions above, but be aware that if you use Imp wheels, you need the matching nuts as mini ones have a steeper fit that won't safely hold the wheels under load. This I know as I recently had a wheel fall off my 1275GT. The Imp wheels were hiding behinto have checked but realistically, I had an hour in which to get thed its original nave plates, kept back from the Denovos that came with the car, OK, so I ought

Even though there are cars out there with the same size pcd as the mini, the bolt size is not so the nut doesnt get a lot of purchase on the wheel. I used imp wheels on my mini hub trailer but the nuts were pulling through the wheel. I went to 12" mini wheels instead.
